Week one: no code, just the work that makes the code possible

The policy memo said "use AI responsibly." I'm building what comes next. I work in a courthouse. Nine years in, three roles deep, and I still get asked questions every week that boil down to the same thing: "is it okay if I use AI for this?" The honest answer is "I don't know, and neither does anyone in this building, and the policy memo doesn't help." That's the problem I'm building around for the next four weeks.
